End of an Era
The next few days are a bit hectic. It is hard to stay away from Dylan when everything in me is screaming not to. It is a little easier when we are spending most of our time with graduation rehearsal. Since I am valedictorian I am positioned in a different part of the rehearsal so he can’t talk to me. I do catch his glance from time to time. As much as this pains me I know I have to keep it up.
Come graduation night I manage to pull off the speech that I really had no idea how I wrote with everything going on. Then after I bid goodbye to Aunt Polly and mom, I head to the celebration that they are holding in the gym. It is supposed to be like a graduation dance, but it is more of an excuse to make sure that seniors don’t go out and get drunk. The dance lasts almost all night and there are areas set up to keep everyone entertained through the night. Those that are leaving are going home to sleep. Or they really are just heading to the parties.
I for one am looking forward to this dance. I have on a very pretty light blue dress that ends at my knees. It has two spaghetti straps that keep the front up. The sheer fabric feels so nice on my skin I can’t help but feel pretty. My mom put my hair up in this really elegant bun. I have curls that are framing my face. I have been told that I am pretty a few times and not just from the people who claim to love me. There have been a few guys too. I thanked them and moved on though. I am not putting myself out there.
Dylan has been texting me this whole time, I answer but it isn’t the same as it was before. It seems like I am just holding so much back. He still hasn’t come clean about whatever him and Brittney were talking about. Granted he made it clear that he picked me over her, but she was obviously holding something over his head and he hasn’t told me what it is.
The dance is set up to be fun. They have raffles and music set up by a DJ. There is a large section set up for food. It is a really nice affair. Katelyn is on one side of me and the other side is Kevin. Katelyn drags us out the dance floor as soon as we get there. The three of us dance together, we do look like some weird threesome, now that I kind of look at it from the outside.
We get exhausted dancing around. I manage to take a break up against the wall, while Katelyn and Kevin go to get drinks. I was going to go with them but told them I wanted a minute alone. They knew I was still dealing with the Dylan stuff so they left me. I am sitting there scanning the room for a few minutes when I hear a familiar voice to my right. “Hey, babe.”
I turn and look. “Hey, Dylan. What’s up?”
He slides closer to me. He is wearing this nice blue button up long sleeve shirt. Paired with black slacks. “Oh, I had my heart crushed and I needed to speak to the most beautiful girl in the room in order to dull the ache in my heart.”
“Oh, really, so, how is Brittney?” I don’t mean to be sour but I am pissed that he still hasn’t talked to me about that.
“I meant you. I haven’t talked to Brittney since that night I told her to leave.” He is serious.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“I know you meant me. I guess I am still mad. I am dealing, I really am. I just don’t know how to do this.” I sigh as I lean my head back against the wall. “I just don’t know where to go next. What to do? That isn’t like me.”
I feel his hand in mine. When I turn to look at him, he nods his head to the side. “Come with me.”
I don’t know what possessed me, but I pulled away from the wall and let him lead me out of the gym. He takes us to a door that is in the back unmanned. The sounds dim as we close the door behind us. I can see a bit why this door is unmanned, it just leads back into the rest of the school which has the bathrooms. Most of the doors are locked, but Dylan keeps leading me further into the school. It is obvious that he has a destination in mind. I don’t say a word as I follow him.
We reach the Chemistry lab and Dylan just opens the classroom. “Mr. Carter keeps this unlocked. He is always losing his keys. Not many people know about it. We will be alone here.” Then he guides me into the room.
He closes the door and then locks it behind us. Then covers the window on the door with the blocker that they have there for intruders. When he turns away from the door I see that hunger in his eyes again. “I have missed you so fucking much.” He almost charges at me. Then his lips are on mine. I try to pull away, I really do but my body is betraying me. I am drawn to him. “I can’t stay away from you any longer. I know you need space, but I need you. Baby please just for now, love me. We can deal with all this later.” Again my body betrays me. I nod my head and then he is on me again.
To actually feel and remember this is much better than last time. His contact is making me buzz. I can hardly handle the contact. His mouth moves to my collar. A gasp and a moan escapes my mouth.
He moans into my skin. “I need you. I need to be one with you. Please baby.”
I am surprised when “Yes” escapes me.
He has my body pushed against the wall by the door. His hand slides up my dress and pulls at my panties, before I can even breath he has them off and flung on the Chemistry classroom floor. Then he has my legs around his waist. He pulls up my dress to give him clear access. His hands quickly find the spot they want, causing moans to escape my mouth of their own freewill. “Baby I need you. This has been torture.” His mouth on my jaw caused zings to flush through my skin.
“Dylan,” I moan.
“Riley, baby. I am going to take you now. Say yes.” He looks right in my eyes. He wants permission this time. I can’t help thinking, “How sweet and hot.”
“Yes.” He doesn’t hesitate. He shifts my body so that he can reach his pants, it takes a minute but he is free.
“Last chance to say no. I want you so bad I won’t be able to stop once we start.” I nod. I am possessed at this point. I know I should be saying no, but I just can’t. He positioned himself at my entrance and then all I felt was bliss. “We are one baby. Do you feel it?” I nod again. God can’t I say a word. I do feel it, it is exhilarating. “I am yours, baby, now and forever. Riley, you are my life.” He is rocking back and forth. Gazing into my eyes he makes sure that we are connected. Then he mouth is on me again as I moan in ecstasy. His hands are on my hips holding me in place, the heat from his hands sends more pleasure through my body and that is through the fabric of the dress. I feel my core tighten as he pulls me closer. God it feels so good. Then he brings a hand up to my chest and caresses it. It is too much and I explode. He follows right behind me. I feel his muscles tighten and his grip squeezing me as he moans. Then he is still.
We stood there holding each other for a minute. It feels so nice. Having him in my arms makes everything melt away. It is just him and I in this room. No problems, no one else to butt in and ruin it. I think I am clinging to him for dear life.
“Baby, keep me by your side. Just for now I know but please don’t leave me.” Dylan sounds so desperate, like my answer will determine if he will live or not.
“Dylan, I never wanted you to go anywhere. I just have a problem with you keeping things from me. Don’t keep things from me Dylan.” I look in his eyes to make sure that he knows that I am serious.
“Riley from here on out I will not keep anything from you. I can’t stand the thought of losing you, I won’t do anything to jeopardize it.” I noted that he said from here on out, that means the secret from before is still secret. I contemplate if I should push it or take what I can get.
I decided to relent. “Alright. We should probably go back to the dance before Katelyn and Kevin send out the cavalry.” Dylan eases me down, then retrieves my panties.
“Here, don’t leave these behind.” He hands them over to me. I attempt to put them on but it is a pain in the ass with heels on.
“I couldn’t find the last pair.” I look shyly at him.
He smirks at me. “I have them, they were a little torn up. I didn’t think you would want them back like that.”
I smile at him. “Pervert.”
He cocks his head at me. “Yes, but I am your pervert. Do you need help?”
I am still struggling with the underwear and heels. “Just come over here and let me use your shoulder.” Once I have the leverage of his shoulder I am able to get them on better. After I check that I didn’t catch my dress in them I am ready to leave this room.
Dylan puts his arm out for me to take. I slide mine in like that is where it was supposed to be.
When we come back in the door that we left I see Katelyn and Kevin immediately. They were looking for me. They take in the look of Dylan and mine locked arms. Kevin nods.
“I am so glad you two made up. I don’t like it when mommy and daddy fight.” All I can do is shake my head. Kevin is so stupid sometimes. The things that come out of his mouth are just insane.
Katelyn eyes Dylan up and down, “You hurt her, I hurt you.”
Dylan kisses my cheek. “I don’t want this woman to go anywhere. I wouldn’t hurt her and make that happen.”
We spent the rest of the night dancing and celebrating. Occasionally I would catch Brittney watching us with a glare, but I really didn’t care. She was old news. I knew it deep down. Whatever she was trying to hold over Dylan’s head is not my problem now. He made it clear that it wasn’t a deal breaker. He still wanted me.
When it hit about six in the morning, we were so ready to head home. Most people already did. Dylan followed me home. My mom didn’t even object. It felt so nice to be wrapped up in Dylan’s arms as we drifted off to sleep.
